Shame on him

I don't know which is worse.

Taking the videos and photos or the folks who published them on the Internet.

I guess both are equally bad, with the "stalker" being worse in terms of the stalking, taking the photos and videos, and then peddling them.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - A Chicago-area man arrested at O'Hare airport who is accused of taping surreptitious nude videos of ESPN reporter Erin Andrews was due to appear in federal court late Saturday morning, authorities said.

Michael David Barrett was arrested Friday night as he arrived on a flight from Buffalo, N.Y., the FBI said. He faces federal charges of interstate stalking for taking the videos, trying to sell them to celebrity Web site TMZ and posting the videos online, the FBI said in a statement.

Several TV networks and newspapers aired brief clips or printed screen grabs from the videos in July.
